Hi- I'd like to have every single tab open as private, whether I open it manually or click on a link that opens in a new tab. How do I do that? I never want any tab to open as anything other than private.

Thanks

Open Settings (in the 3 bar menu) and on the Privacy & Security under the heading History select Always use private browsing mode.
